Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome
Are you experiencing any of the following symptoms?
- Foot pain
- Weakness in the foot
- Numbness
- Tingling in the sole or arch of the foot
Tarsal tunnel syndrome occurs when a nerve is pinched in the inner ankle. This area is complex, composed of a mix of muscles, nerves, muscles, and ligaments. The tibial nerve runs down the leg to the inner ankle, and is particularly vulnerable to pinching. This condition can result from an injury, rolling the foot inward, a tissue mass or cyst, or inflammation.
